SafeFileHandle(IntPtr, Boolean)

Source:
SafeFileHandle.cs
Source:
SafeFileHandle.cs
Source:
SafeFileHandle.cs

Initializes a new instance of the SafeFileHandle class.

public:
 SafeFileHandle(IntPtr preexistingHandle, bool ownsHandle);
public SafeFileHandle (IntPtr preexistingHandle, bool ownsHandle);
new Microsoft.Win32.SafeHandles.SafeFileHandle : nativeint * bool -> Microsoft.Win32.SafeHandles.SafeFileHandle
Public Sub New (preexistingHandle As IntPtr, ownsHandle As Boolean)

Parameters

preexistingHandle
IntPtr

nativeint

An IntPtr object that represents the pre-existing handle to use.

ownsHandle
Boolean

true to reliably release the handle during the finalization phase; false to prevent reliable release (not recommended).

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to open a file by using the SafeFileHandle class and the unmanaged CreateFile function.

using System;
using Microsoft.Win32.SafeHandles;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.ComponentModel;

        {
